This forum is dedicated to the discussion and display of old knives. The rich history of all the many companies that made them through the early years will be found here as well as many fine examples of the cutlers art. Share pictures of your old knives and your knowledge here!
A pocket knife is still an intimate personal possession of the individual who carries it and consequently deserves the best of materials, finish and workmanship in its production. (Quoted from Boker's 1928 cutlery catalog).
Nice knives here but I have to get some Cattaraugus in here. Check the tang stamp on the last one, Only small Cattaraugus folding pocket knife I have with a straight 4 line tang stamp.
Here's a 3 pack of jacks I have; the top one is a red bone 6231 1/2, followed by a saw cut bone 62009 with a spear blade and a rough black 62031 1/2. All with Case XX tang stamps. I have an Appaloosa bone A6235 1/2 from 1980 but it's not a bare head.
Pocket, fixed, machete, axe, it's all good!
